Caspian Sea Shanty (For Three Voices)


O the Caspian Sea
Has been mighty good to me.
I said the Caspian Sea
Has been mighty good to me.
You know, the Caspian Sea
Has been mighty good to me,
Yes, siree,
Let’s hear it for the Caspian Sea.

May I enter a plea
On behalf of that sea –
As do Murray, Mike and Meredith,
Letitia, Luke and Lee.
We all love to go there
With our sandwiches of brie.
Where do we like to go to?
Why, the Caspian Sea!

I’ll admit my heart’s a-racin’
When I’m by that Caspian Basin
With my friend, Yehudi Kogsov –
We can’t wait to get out togs off
And go dipping skinnily
In that salty Caspian Sea.

And we all like to fish
In the Caspian Dish:
Sturgeon, roach and bream –
I tell you, fishing there’s a scream!
There’s no place we’d rather be
Than beside the Caspian Sea!
